Artfire Collections Featuring Feathers

I sell some feather supplies and hair clips in my Artfire store, but I love this new feature that Artfire has for creating collections. I thought I would share some of my favorites that include other designers as well. There are many pretty pieces to found. So start shopping!

One of My Favorites

This is one of my favorite feathered hair clips that I made.  I love the rich peacock colors.  It is the only feather pad that I had like this because it cost a bit more than the usual feather pads that I sell.  These are the more rare feathers collected off of chest of peacock.  The colors vary with different angles and lighting.  If you are interested in checking out any of my feather designs and supplies they can be found in my Artfire.com link in the right hand column of this blog.  My main website and store name over on Artfire.com is Gypsy G Designs.  I sell a bunch of other stuff in addition to feather fashions.  It's the Gypsy in me that loves many things and many places!  Here is the link to my website http://gypsygdesigns.com/  I try to add new product to it at least a couple times a month.  Feel free to sign the guest book if you would like occasional updates on my store.  (Don't worry, I don't share addresses or a send a ton of emails.)

Halloween is Coming!

Halloween is Coming!
Are you ready for all the parties?  What if get invited to a masquerade party, but don't have a lot of time to prepare?
There are so many fun ideas for masks, especially with feathers.  Buy one premade or make one up yourself!  If you click on one of my Ostrich.com affiliate links you will find a section that has premade masks for sale.  If you are looking to make your own they have TONS of gorgeous feathers dyed in dozens of colors.  So go check it out. 

And don't forget the Feather Pads.  They sell feathers already glued down onto a lightweight fabric backing that can be cut and trimmed for your own designs.  These also work well for mask making.  The other plus to having a mask or two is that they make pretty decoration to your interior design when they aren't being used as mask!  Take a look at my Artfire.com store Gypsy G Designs.  I also sell some feathers there for small projects and I always try to ship them out quickly.

Get started now so that you can have a little Halloween magic when October sneaks around the corner!

Competing for the Spotlight



This is a video of one of my feathered Facebook friends Marnie chatting with his best friend Mr. Pretty Bird. It is so adorable how they compete for the spotlight in front of the camera. I love the beautiful baby blue feathers!

I found this cute parakeet "Louie" on Facebook. He is so adorable! It isn't very often that you hear a parakeet talking!
